Be With Me .....It's back!!

You know the most stupid thing one can do is to leave behind the things which made them, you can simply call refer them as “Jerks”. Here I’m bringing out one of the greatest jerk of all time… Ladies and Gentleman put your hand together for ME.

I have been really outspoken about my aspiration and desires for writing in almost every interview of mine. My journey as a child who was afraid to share his work in a concern of being judged to a writer who was a rated among the Top 50 bloggers in India and subsequently moved on to pen down a book was like a dream. I just never expected it to happen so fast. I may not be talented enough but surely I was very fortunate. Jai mata di.

I don’t need to tell you how good it felt because you know it but then I never realized when everything slipped away from my hands. It’s a happy day for me as SNAPPY THOUGHTS is finally going live again so I will not write what actually occurred and why I wasn’t writing. Let bygones be bygones forever.

With a hope that my readers still remember me, I promise you that this time I’m back and I am not going anywhere. In case some of you have forgotten my work then I will make sure that my work will again make a place in your life and will stay there as long as the entire human race survives.  (Ok, the last part was a bit dramatic.)

I will not alter the look of my website because we will begin from the position where we exactly left each other and this time it will be a never ending journey. I don’t leave you and hope you will stay with me.

I need your support and for that I need to win back your heart. After that we will find out if my name can again be named among the top bloggers in India. Even if it doesn’t happen again but please be with me.

An open letter to NaMo

By Mayank

Dear NaMO sir,

No wonder after a bad tenure and bundles of scam by Congress and a dramatic government run by Kejriwali in Delhi has helped you to excel and it has also made you better among the three. I really admire the fact that a son of chaiwala is on his way to lead the nation. More and more people, be it young or old is looking forward to your government. You have some die hard supporters in doubt.

And how can I forget your campaign? It’s stirring and immense. I have lost my count of the numbers of rallies and helicopter tour you have done in past few months. I really like your promotional song sung by Sukhwinder singh. Every time I switch on the radio, television or internet I see your face or hear your promotional line i.e. ab ki baar modi sarkar. I have never seen such a campaign. But one question always remain jumping at the back of my head, from where this tsunami of fund is coming from? I just hope some giant is not helping you with this and you’ll not return their favour after forming the government.

You want to promote Hinduism but do Hindu wants the same? NO, we don’t want a religious augment all we want is national development and peace. We want to stay in a booming country where every religion is equal and great. We are Indians first and I hope the same for you. After seeing your progress in Gujarat I really thought you would leave no stone unturned in Indian development but then you said you don’t want FDI in multi brand retail. Sorry but I can’t help my self from laughing at this. You are very funny sir. It’s really and when I say really it means really difficult to develop this country without FDI. How will you create more jobs without FDI, will you form companies or will you provide subsidies to open new companies from  the national wealth. How will you increase the inflow of money in the national account, will you increase the tax rates? How will you push the local manufacturers to perform better and to delivery good quality at competitive price, will you threat them to do so? They say one must not go down go to the level of others but you are going down. The comments like AK49 and Pakistani agent is so amateurish. It’s like degrading your self.

These religion based politics and No- FDI stand will definitely increase your vote bank but will it benefit the nation in a long run. The public is very much disappointed with the work of Congress but is it the only reason why they are supporting you? Just because one is bad does it automatically makes the other one good?

I have nothing against anyone. I just want a better nation. I’m quite sure with this hype, you’ll form government but I hope you’ll work for the nation. I hope you’ll form a national party not a religious one. I just prey my apprehensions are erroneous. Best of luck!

Warmest regards,

A citizen

The book bomb

by Mayank

Nuclear bomb, time bomb and human bomb are used for destroying people, well we all know that. But there is another type of bomb, a VERY DANGEROUS bomb which can destroy humanity, religion and society.
And that bomb is....
drum rolls and cheers! please!

THE BOOK BOMB.

Yes, The book bomb. It consists of a beautiful cover and pages inside it (now don't gasp in shock,they actually have pages) with black colour texts over it. (Now can you believe that! I just hope it's not illegal.) After a great and intensive research, the Indian ministers of propaganda discovered that books can harm religion and culture. (I hope you are now laughing. This is serious.)
Person devoted to his religion and culture spends their lifetime knowing about their culture and gods. Even after that they think a book can uproot their believes, then I am sure that their faith and devotion is not good enough. If you believe on something be it your partner, religion or culture, then some words from external source can never shake your believe and if it does then I am forced to conclude that 'in reality you have no faith and you are fake.'
And the most ironical part of the story is that most of the person who revolts against a book are those who actually never read them and don't even know English properly.

Dear so called revolutionaries,
We are writers and we are soldiers. We don't need a gun or a bomb to make an impact, all we need is a pen and a paper. No matter how hard you try to suppress us. No matter how hard you to try to ban a book. We'll always come up with paper articles, blogs and websites and that too with different pen name.

Regards,
A soldier and a person whose faith is not fake.

AAP's New Age Democracy

AAP’s decision to go to public and ask for their point of view before shaking their hands with congress to

form government in Delhi is a complete new dimension in Indian democracy. Remitting the orthodox method of forming of government AAP has adopted a new method, Public Referendum.

By adopting this method of public referendum Arvind Kejriwal has led India in the league of countries like Switzerland, Brazil, Argentina, etc., where this method is already very popular. It’s not that this method is completely new in India but it was so far limited up to gram pahchayat, where the panchayat ask their sabha for decision through different methods.

Few may say that this is a lack of leadership, waste of time or running away from responsibility. But I believe this is the beginning of a new era in Indian Politics. Public referendum will help them to form a strong foundation for their party as well as for the country. It will give meaning to democracy “For the people by the people”. And with so much technology viz. sms, e-mails, web portals this is certainly not a stiff task any more.

We wanted the change and I guess the change is here.

DREAM

I have seen a dream
In that dream I saw a world
A world free from violence.
A world free from evils.
A world where only love and respect exist.
A world with peace.
But I am afraid, this was just a dream.
Still I'll not let this dream go
I'll pray, my dream shall come true one day.

THEN YOU ARE A MAN

When you stand for yourself, 

And distinct yourself from the barbaric crowd.

When you stand for the right,

And when you fight with the hounds.

Then you are a man.

When you respect a women,

And make her feel safe.

When you truly love a girl,

And provide her solace.

Then you are a man.

When you back your words and promises,

No matter what comes in your way.

When you understand the pain of others,

Even though they don't say.

Then you are a man.

THE INNOCENT PORN

The earth is round and almost everything in this world works in a cyclic form e.g water cycle but the cycle which is trending in the nation is "POLITICS-RAPE CYCLE"

Its working is simpler than the water cycle. Here it is,

RAPE-POLITICS-BLAME-NO CONCLUSION    again, BLAME

NEXT RAPE-POLITICS-BLAME-NO CONCLUSION

Other things remain constant except the "blame". The element of this cycle called as blame change its form in every cycle. Sometimes its Bollywood, sometime chowmien , sometimes music, etc. and porn is the latest inductee in this list.

Yes, according to the latest research of highly qualified and intelligent researchers of our government "porn" is responsible for rapes. Surprisingly , having porn and distributing them may give you 2 years of imprisonment or rs.50,000 fine,which is actually more than the punishment of many rape cases

(excluding those rapes which don't even get registered).

So, the logic goes like this "A BOY WATCHES A PORN,GO OUTSIDE AND RAPE A GIRL."

Really! is it so?

Many state government are planning to ban porn in their states. They may block such websites and police will raid on many downloading shops and cyber cafe and I am sure most of the police will personally see every porn before deleting them. While police will be busy doing this, a group of boys will easily abduct a girl and rape her because there is no one outside to protect you.

Ok, lets assume porn are responsible for rapes but are porn responsible for brutality and barbaric acts like inserting things in private parts or does porn support child abuse.

I guess no!

The only thing which leads to this is ones mentality.

Instead of doing all this rubbish why don't our authorities do some serious work like providing protection and teach every police officer whats their actual duty is. Their duty is not to hide a rape or support a rapist but to stop rapes and making sure that every victim gets justice.

But I personally don't think police will ever do it.Sometimes due to pressure from the top because many high profile persons are involved (Suryanelli rape case in which Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman P J Kurien is involved, still no serious action against him even though the girl has identified him.), sometimes because they are bribed, sometime because they them self are involved and most important a friend in need is a friend in deed and in hindi we say "चोर चोर मौसेरा भाई " 

If it is mandatory to ban something, then may be alcohol should be banned, atleast it sounds logical because it drives you crazy but if it is banned then how officials will enjoy in the party and discuss priority topics of the country and not to forget the high amount of tax alcohol brings. After all its not about changing the nation its about enjoying in the nation.

Its a high time "powerful peoples" please stop picking easy targets to hide your mistakes and do some real work, most important check yourself.

Porn are not responsible for rapes, its your carelessness and lack of law and order. It is you who is encouraging such things not girls short dress, bollywood,porn,etc. 

Stop blaming !

SAY SORRY PLEASE!

SAY SORRY PLEASE!

Who in India don't know about The Jallianwala Bagh massacre (also known as the Amritsar massacre) and the 1919 brutal act was again in news after so many years.For those who don't know why please don't panic there is no attack from Britishers again.

Recently,UK Prime Minister David Cameron  was in India visit and as a good guest he said all good things about India including Indian foods.All was well until said "The Jallianwala Bagh massacre was deeply shameful act in british history.We must never forget what happened."

Now, If we apply some sense there is no issue but Jai ho! our Indian politicians they can find issue in anything.Our great Indian personalities said in chorus that he should have apologized to the whole country and should not just show sympathy.

 

Now, the question is- Do he really need to apologize?

In my personal opinion "NO".

Why should he?

He has nothing to do with that attack.He was not even born that time. Still he showed sympathy and called that as a shameful act.He performed the duty of guest very well and we forgot our ritual of "atithi devo bahva" (guest are god) and back fired our guest.

Why should anybody apologize for the thing in which he/she was not even involved and the situation was completely out of there control.And if we have to apologize for indirect act then every American should say sorry to all Hiroshima and Nagasaki citizens, every Pakistani should apologize to Indians and Americans,Indian should apologize to Pakistani,China should apologize to Indians and then this apology chain will go on and on.

The only one who should apologize to every Indian is The Government.They should apologize to every single citizen for their all harassment. They should say sorry for corruption,scams,poor law and order,price rise,etc.

How can we expect other to say sorry when our very own is not ready to apologize for their act.Atleast other showed sympathy and accepted their fault but our Government has no shame and busy playing their senseless politics.

SAY SORRY GOVERNMENT

WE THE (PEOPLE)× VICTIM!

                          WE THE (PEOPLE)× VICTIM! :IN INDIA

"We the people of India" this statement is no new to any Indian but slowly it is transforming into "We the victims in India". Yes, you read it right the victims in India.We were citizens once but not anymore.Now we are just victims, victims of politics, government, mobs and different communities. Our life is now interrupted and controlled in every single step.

There is a great saying "Art has no boundaries" but in India "Art has boundaries". In present scenario it is not about how creative or talented you are, it is about how you please others with your talent and if you do not,well! then get ready to face consequences.

Recently, A girl rock band from Kashmir was in lime light and actually it is still in limelight."Girl band" may sound normal to you but in Kashmir the sentence was said like this:

 "Band!!!!!! of girls!!! ladkia gaa rahi hain :o (girls are singing)oh lord! have mercy"

WHY? Is following your passion specially for a girl is a crime? if a boy can then why can not a girl and their jeans and top added to make their situation worse.(In my personal opinion jeans and top hides a girl body more than a saree). After few days FATWA was out against them.Finally the girls quit their passion due to constant threats and pressure, even i would have done the same in that situation. Before which Jammu and Kashmir C.M Omar Abdullah said "Girls should continue to follow their passion" but Mr. C.M you did not promise that you will save them when they get attacked or killed in the process.

Before this case few years back, Mr. Salman Rushdie was forced to leave India because few communities were offended by  his book THE SATANIC VERSES and they wanted to kill Rushdie.

Is our society so barbarian!Communities go around giving threats and all we can do is run for our life because their is no police no government to save us.

Mr.Kamal Hassan and his movie Vishwaroopam are the new entries in this victim list.His movie was banned by government in south because they thought this will hurt Muslim's feeling but the movie released in Rest of India.This lead me to wonder Do south India has more Muslim communities than in U.P and Kashmir and why did not the movie hurt their feeling so badly.The answer is simple it is not about muslims, they are just dragged by the political leaders for their dirty game.

This situation followed by Amartya sen's statement "Discuss real issues not Hassan Rushdie"

I think Mr. Sen failed to understand that it is not about Hassan and Rushdie, it is about our fundamental right.This kind of things shows the mentality of Indians and Mr. Sen, this is a concern.How can a writer say such kind of things when there is a direct attack on art.

Fundamental rights in India is an alien concept, where Right to EQUALITY/EXPRESS/SAFETY/etc do not exist.Government has failed big time to empower us with our rightful rights just to maintain their vote bank and run.

And,The biggest irony of this nation is movies,books and music are banned by , criticized by and offend them, who actually did not watch that movie, read that book and listen that music.  

GREAT INDIA!

PAKISTAN ARRIVAL IS RAPE DEPARTURE:Rape got banged

               PAKISTAN ARRIVAL IS RAPE DEPARTURE:

                                                 Rape got banged 

  "NIRBHAYA/ DAMINI/ ETC" 's rape grabbed worldwide attention and why not it was a brutal act but what makes it so "popular" when we compare it to the acts in which girls were burnt alive or beheaded after rape.The answer is simple because it happened in our so called national capital.The news was banging all over in society, in media and in politics until Pakistan bang bang the border and the banging noise was loud enough to distract everyone's attention, after all its a famous India-Pakistan issue and now we can throw out our frustration of losing a ODI against Pakistan.The problem caught fire when the news was out that pakistani soldiers beheaded Indian soldier Hemraj singh and they took away his head with them.

 The nation outburst again this time against pakistan and surprisingly this time government and public were on the same track.This followed by super senseable oops! i mean super senseless statements by our political leaders. Susma swaraj said "for every 1 head we will bring 10 heads" OMG r u kidding me? Such kind of statements shows how immature our leaders are and how smart we the common people are atleast we talk sense (ya apart from buddy time talk) and not to forget our very own PM for him its "no business". I am still to understand this but the business thing is really taking the shit out of my mind.

In the aftermath of this incident we have many situations

1. As mentioned above great political statements by our leaders.

2.Pakistani actress Meera marched demanding 5yrs visa for Pakistani artist.

(oh now please do not laugh,its a real news)

3.Our very own anti-biharis are banning Pakistanis in "their place" and i am afraid that now they will announce that Biharis have their origin from Pakistan.

Now on a serious note "yes i agree its a big loss for the nation to loose their soldier and specially when the soldier was beheaded its awful"

But why we forget that he was ready to die for the nation that is why he joined army.Being called as a "SAHEED" with all respect is a soldier's ultimate pride and he got it but a girl burned alive, beheaded or having iron rod inside her body after rape is a national shame.Do we realize that we are angry when a real soldier is getting all respect and pride to be called as "SAHEED" but actually forgetting the real reason to get angry.

Did you guess the hidden part?

Government can now relax for a while because most of the attention is now on Pakistan and slowly everyone is forgetting December 2012 brutal act and many other similar act.

BLAME GAME: The new national sport

                        "BLAME GAME:THE NEW NATIONAL SPORT"

The last time I checked Hockey was the National sport of India but it is surprising to see that everyone(specially authorities) is playing only one game "THE BLAME GAME". The rules for this game are very simple actually it is easier than KBC .Here they are:

RULE 1:
Wait for a problem to occur, until then chillax baby.

RULE 2:
When something bad happens, show sympathy for the "unlucky" victim.

RULE 3:
When the time come to take any action or to take any responsibility, Well pass it on to someone else saying them "its your fault" and give them all the responsibilities.

And then the chain of passing the blames will go on and on.Just like our childhood game Passing the Parcel but unlike it this blame game is a never ending chain.

Delhi Rape Case is a best example
STAGE 1:
The police relaxed.

STAGE 2:
 A girl got raped and the authorities showed sympathy

STAGE 3:
When the time come to take responsibilities and accept their mistake they passed it on to bollywood.

Yes bollywood, authorities own punching bag. According to them after promoting Tobacco and Smoke now they are promoting Rapes.Now that is what I call THE LOL MOMENT OF THE YEAR.
After short dress, chowmein and mobile phones, Bollywood is the new offender.
I mean really is bollywood responsible for girls getting rape?
They say bollywood is ruining the image of girls in society, they are showing girls as a object, they are provoking boys through vulgar lines and rape scenes.
If this mess continues the time is not far when government will force director to show a declaration saying
"RAPES AND MOLESTATION  ARE INJURIOUS  TO SOCIETY. PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME OR ANYWHERE ELSE" at the time of rape scenes.

"Films are corrupting the mentality of people and inspiring miscreant"
is it so!
I think the authorities have forgot clean movies in which humanity is promoted or may be they were busy watching B-GRADE movies and never watched a main line bollywood movie.
The fact is movies (bollywood/hollywood) are made mostly on one platform that is showing humanity and truth as a ultimate winner(unlike reality).

A man lives at least 20-30 years with his mother and sisters and when he watch a 3hours movie his mentality changes and he start disrespecting women.
Is 3hours more effective than 20-30years??
If yes, then that is not the fault of a movie its ones mentality who sees women as a sex object and who can even rape his mother or sister when they get a "suitable opportunity". And the most horrible part they try to get away by saying that he was provoked by the girl someway.Well in such case a girl can easily kill a boy and get away by saying she was proved by the boy's ill activities, fair enough.

Now it is high time for authorities to think like a mature person and understand if a person do not stand for another person at the time of mishappening after watching a humanity based movie then he is definitely  not going to rape a girl after watching a rape scene in a movies.
Government should take appropriate action, make new strict laws and perform their duty with honesty rather than passing the blame and responsibility to hide their fault , mismanagement and the most important to maintain their run.
